  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the missing "itemListElement" field in your breadcrumbs. This is a common issue that can occur when the Breadcrumb Schema is not properly configured.

    To resolve this, please ensure that you have enabled the Breadcrumbs feature in Rank Math. Here are the steps to check:

    1. Navigate to Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Breadcrumbs.
      Open Breadcrumb settings in Rank Math

    2. Make sure the breadcrumbs function is enabled.
      Enable breadcrumbs function

    3. After enabling, configure any additional options as needed and click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.
      Save Changes

    4. Ensure that you have added the necessary code snippet to your theme’s template file (either single.php or header.php) to display the breadcrumbs on the front-end:

      Alternatively, you can use the shortcode:

      [rank_math_breadcrumb]

    Once you have made these changes, check your site again in Google Search Console to see if the issue persists. If it does, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so we can assist you further.

    Thank you for raising this concern, and we look forward to helping you resolve it!
